KAREEN KAUR Becomes Singapore’s First Female F4 Driver, Youngest SEA Scorer

March 2, 2026

• KAREEN KAUR is rewriting Singapore motorsports history at just 15, becoming the country’s first female F4 driver and the youngest Southeast Asian woman to score points in FIA F4 competition. Her August debut in the F4 Indian Championship delivered those crucial points that put her on the radar and boosted her confidence for the long climb toward F1 qualification.
• The transition from karting to F4 has been a masterclass in adaptation for KAREEN, who discovered her racing talent at age nine during a casual family lunch at Turf City. An Italian team spotted her potential immediately after she placed fourth in her first karting attempt, leading to professional training with 29R Racing Development and eventually Asia Racing Team for her F4 career.
• While juggling GCE O-Level preparations with full F4 training, KAREEN secured third in the ROK Cup Singapore Championship and fourth in ROK Cup Asia as the only female competitor. She’s building toward the F4 South East Asia Championship in Sepang this April, acknowledging the physical demands while maintaining that talent and hard work trump gender when helmets go on.
